pith in the center with vascular
tissues in a distinct ring visible in a cross section. They have
secondary growth originating from their
lateral or secondary

vascular cambium and the
cork cambium.

stomata on the
lower epidermis than the
upper epidermis. As these leaves are held horizontally,
upper epidermis is directly illuminated. Less number of
stomata on the
upper epidermis can then prevent water loss.
